(CNN) - Democratic presidential candidate Marianne Williamson once entertained 9/11 conspiracy theories on a radio show hosted by a prominent "truther" who claimed that the World Trade Center attacks were orchestrated by a "Zionist organized crime outfit." Williamson was a guest on Truth Jihad, a radio show hosted by conspiracy theorist Kevin Barrett. Williamson responded: "So you think that the Zionist organized crime unit were the ones who did 9/11?" Barrett's theories that falsely posit a conspiracy involving Israeli complacency in the 9/11 attacks have deeply anti-Semitic roots. All three have individually pushed and promoted conspiracy theories surrounding 9/11 on their programs, though Williamson did not discuss any theories surrounding the World Trade Center attacks during her appearances, according to a review conducted by CNN's KFile.
(CNN) - Democratic presidential candidate Marianne Williamson posted and then deleted a tweet Wednesday morning that suggested the "power of mind" could deter Hurricane Dorian from slamming into the US. Millions of us seeing Dorian turn away from land is not a wacky idea; it is a creative use of the power of the mind. Though she removed the post, Williamson defended herself against criticism on social media. Hurricane Dorian pulverized the Bahamas for two days, leaving the islands in an apocalyptic wreckage and devastating destruction. As of Wednesday morning, Hurricane Dorian remains a category 2 hurricane as it heads toward a possible landfall in the Carolinas.
(CNN) - Democratic presidential candidate Marianne Williamson on Thursday apologized for calling clinical depression a scam in past comments, but defended other controversial statements about antidepressants. When asked about her use of terms like "numb" and "mask" to describe antidepressants, Williamson came out against telling a seriously depressed person that taking an antidepressant would numb them. Williamson argued that "there is value sometimes in feeling the sadness" of difficult events as a part of life. "So what I speak to is not serious -- what is today called clinical depression, although I have questioned sometimes how that is looked at," she said. Williamson also apologized Thursday in the interview for previously calling clinical depression "a scam" while on a podcast, acknowledging that it was "a glib comment" that was "wrong of me to say."
It was debate week in Detroit! It was a "wow" moment, and I'm so glad the national media is now working to tell more positive stories about Detroit and the resurgence. We traveled to Flint this week to talk with Mayor Karen Weaver. I really appreciated the answer from Marianne Williamson, who said what happened in Flint would not have happened in Grosse Pointe. This one is always a good reminder: Never pay anyone in the form of a gift card.
Marianne Williamson made a splash on the stage at Tuesday night's Democratic debate. In one particularly talked-about moment, Williamson appeared to yodel, her voice cracking as she passionately discussed health care. Another instance saw her evoke "Seinfeld" as she dropped a "yada, yada, yada" while discussing gun control. In the three-hour debate, she spoke just nine minutes, but those minutes made an impact. Her dire warning about a "dark psychic force" also generated search interest.
The two most progressive candidates in the 2020 Democratic field struck inspirational tones, with Warren urging Democrats to be "the party of big, structural change."

Delaney began the debate by comparing the two to failed Democratic nominees George McGovern (1972), Walter Mondale (1984) and Michael Dukakis (1988). It's why none of them landed real blows on Warren or Sanders all night. No daylight between Warren and SandersThe top two-polling progressives in the Democratic field were positioned on stage next to each other Tuesday night.
